## Resource

The despair of May gives way to the delight of July! A month ago, we all looked ahead to a stretch of footy that included the Suns, Swans & Cats, fearing that our season might be over on the other side. Instead, as we reach the other side, we find ourselves back in the top four, with the hat trick dream well and truly revived. It took twenty-two years for our last win in Geelong. We only had to wait 377 days for the next one, with a first-quarter avalanche setting up a famous win that sets us up perfectly for the run to September. And just when you think things couldn’t get any better, Hugh McCluggage and Dayne Zorko return to join the party.
